Product Information

This small barrel-shaped cheese made with sheep’s milk is the cousin of the well-known Crottin. When young the interior is smooth but compact. As the cheese matured the rind soften, the interior gets fudgy with a mild nutty and straw like flavour.

This is the milder version of Gorgonzola – sweet and gentle, rich and creamy. There is still a touch of spice from the pale blue mould, but it is quickly tamed by the incredible creaminess of this cheese. Gorgonzola Dolce Latte has a luscious texture with some super-runny patches here and there. Even people who say they don’t like blue cheese like this.

Bûche de Chèvre is made in a traditional log shape, and then rolled with ash to create a unique appearance by the Fromagerie Jacquin. The flavour is light and fresh with some richer nutty and earthy notes emerging under the striking black rind.

Colston Bassett is a small dairy co-operative, with 4 local ‘member’ farms that supply all the milk for cheese-making. Their Stilton is rich and buttery, with that characteristic blue-green veining of earthy blue mould that delivers a full, strong flavour. The perfect after-dinner cheese – serve with a good port and some muscatels.

One of the classic goat’s cheeses from France, made in a traditional log shape. Younger cheeses have a creamy, lemony tang. As the cheese matures, the nutty and earthy flavours from the rind become stronger, and the texture becomes firmer.

Just in case the triple cream cheese Brillat Savarin isn’t indulgent enough for you, we have this version with a layer of shaved truffle through the middle. The characteristic light, creamy interior is complimented by the delicate perfume of black truffles – it is like eating whipped cream with truffles. The texture is smooth and soft – not runny, but definitely ‘melt-in-the-mouth’ territory.

Accept no imitations – this is the real deal. Fresh mozzarella made to DOP specifications using buffalo milk in Campania, Italy. Once you have tasted the unique flavour – milky, lactic, mossy and sweet – you can NEVER go back. Break it apart with your hands to admire the supple ‘angel hair’ texture. Use it to make a simple caprese salad or on top of woodfired pizza. Air-freighted to guarantee freshness.

What a better way to combines two favourites – Cheese & Champagne. This light coloured washed rind is usually washed with champagne, or served with champagne poured in the middle cavity (fountaine). With a salty flavour the paste is dense but melt in the mouth. The perfect cheese for a festive cheese board.

Délice des Crémiers translates to ‘delight of the cheese-maker’ – and it certainly lives up to its name! Under the thin white rind the interior is super-decadent – rich and creamy with a cakey, whipped texture. There is a note of tangy crème fraîche and a hint of salt on the finish. Enjoy before dinner with a glass of bubbles.

Named after famous French gastronome and avid cheese-lover Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, this cheese is pure indulgence without being over the top. Under the thin, white rind the triple cream interior has a soft, whipped texture and a rich flavour with a light, lingering finish. Like other double and triple creams, it does have added salt, but it is very subtle on the finish.
